Author and Disclosure Information

“There’s not a night on call when I’m not admitting a teenager trying to kill himself. So when I see your data, I split it into the ADHD group and the antidepressant group.

This study was funded by the Health Resources and Services Administration. Dr. Grundmeier reported having no relevant financial conflicts.
